Do you need a permit?
Murfreesboro requires a permit for a re-roof.
Normal maintenance repairs of an existing building or structure may be made without a permit, provided the repairs do not violate any provision of the code; the City defines normal maintenance repairs to include items such as exterior and interior painting, papering, glazing of windows or doors, floor finishing, and minor repairs to chimneys, porches, underpinning or roofing.
